Okay. Thank you, Kevin, and good afternoon everyone. We appreciate your participation in today's call to review our third quarter results, our outlook for the remainder of 2014, and our positioning going into 2015. Joining me today is our CFO, Peter Donato, who will provide a detailed review about our results. And Jack McCarthy, our Chief Commercialization Officer, who will participate with us in the Q&A session following our prepared remarks. To sum up Q3, it was a period of very solid performance and significant progress for Bovie Medical. We continued to post double-digit growth in total revenues reflecting year-over-year growth in sales of electrodes and generators improved OEMs sales at a modest contribution from our recent launch of Derm 101 and 102, which began shipping in August. You may recall that these products along with the IDS 310 generator represented the first new major core product launches for Bovie in more than 10 years. Derm 101 and Derm 102 are high frequency desiccators that can be used by family practitioners, pediatricians, physician assistant and general dermatologists to perform minor skin procedures in their offices without having to refer patients to a dermatologist specialist. We entered into an exclusive distribution agreement with a global medical products firm that has already reordered over 3x the number of products compared to their initial order giving you some idea of the demand that they expect in the marketplace. This is important for several reasons that far exceed the short-term financial impact. First, it is emblematic of the untapped value that lies in our R&D pipeline, where we have a number of products that can be refined and developed with limited investment required on our part to drive future profitable revenue growth. Second, it illustrates how Bovie products are adaptable to other market as…

Thank you, Rob. I'm going to take you through the quarter in some more detail. We posted a healthy 17% increase in net revenues compared with the year ago. As Rob said, our core business saw a double-digit increase of 11% or about $600,000 over a $200,000 increase in our OEM business and $75,000 increase in J-Plasma sales from the third quarter of 2013. The increase in J-Plasma represent double – the $45,000 achieved during the entire first half of this year. Our GAAP gross margin for the quarter was 28.3%. It was negatively impacted by charges totaling nearly $800,000 that were primarily related to the write-down of some international consignment inventory related to J-Plasma and other items. Excluding the charges gross margin was 41.3% an expansion of 250 basis points compared with a 38.8% a year earlier. And expansion of 210 basis points from the second quarter of this year. This margin improvement reflects the continued benefit received from structure reductions in our labor force initiated late last year a more favorable product mix and up tick in our OEM business. The adjusted margins this quarter were marginally indicative of our go-forward margins exclusive of any special charges and we expect to see margins improving as volumes picked up in our core and OEM businesses and especially as J-Plasma continues to gain traction in the marketplace. Turning to operating expenses, R&D for the quarter increased almost 27% versus last year's third quarter at $368,000 compared with $291,000 as we continued to develop our J-Plasma product line and continue to deliver on our strategy of realizing the value of our innovative R&D pipeline. Professional services fees were down almost $400,000 versus last year, when the company had high legal cost associated with disputes that are now behind us. SG&A increased…

Thanks Peter. Looking ahead to 2015, we are confident in both Bovie's growth prospects. Earlier this week, we announced the appointment of Shawn Roman to the newly created position of Director of R&D. This is inline with a strategy I discussed earlier to unlock the value that exists in our product pipeline and portfolio. So far this year, we have negotiated OEM contracts that should result in 2015 revenues that are similar to those of 2014 and significantly progressive growth in 2016 and 2017. Today, we have a direct sales force of 13 to drive adoption of J-Plasma. Six months ago, we had four. All of the sales people and executives that we have brought on Board this year come to Bovie with many years of medical device experience and excellent track record. The first nine months of the year have resulted in a lot of positive change at Bovie Medical. And I thank the entire Bovie team for pulling together to enable us to achieve so much progress. And we all appreciate the support of our shareholders and all of our stakeholders. Operator Kevin, I would now like to open the call to questions.

Thank you. At this time, we will be conducting a question-and-answer session. (Operator Instructions) Our first question today is coming from Russell Cleveland, Private Investor. Please proceed with your question.

Good afternoon gentlemen and congratulations on a great quarter, really good numbers. Two questions, one for you, Rob, and one for Peter. You had mentioned 100 surgeons currently using that, is there any relationship for example, if the 20 systems per systems, how many more surgeons will begin using it and maybe even another way of phrasing it our – is our target for number of surgeon say over the next quarter or two?

Okay. Thanks Russell. I will take the first question. What we mentioned in the prepared remarks, is our pipeline is 100 surgeons, and these surgeons, it remains at a 100, these surgeons move through the pipeline from interested in using the product to being a routine user of the product. As I mentioned in the remarks, we are now migrating to a new set of metrics that represent going from creating that awareness of J-Plasma to tracking actual accounts that are ordering J-Plasma and that was the over 20 that I mentioned before. In addition to that, we also have 20 – I'm sorry, 14 ordering – I apologize, 14 accounts that are ordering J-Plasma right now and another 20 accounts in which the product is being considered by the value analysis committee. And we expect to move through the value analysis committee and increase the number of accounts that are ordering. So they go through the [VAT] (ph) process and then they become ordering accounts. And just to be clear, our definition of an ordering account is an account that places an initial order and then reorders. So it's not just one order and now you are an account, it's if you are reordering the product. So we view that really as a very relevant metric to continue to track and report on and that's indicative of sales as opposed to the individual surgeons.

Right, great. Okay. Then question for your Peter, I noticed we had the expense of 1.7 related to the derivative reevaluation on the warrants, do you think we can get that cleared up by year-end, it seems like it has taken an awful long time to get that off of the…

It has taken a long time. We did make a lot of progress and you and I have talked there. And we talked on the calls before. Unfortunately Russell, it's not a unilateral decision as far as Bovie there. There is a warrant holder on the other end. And we are active in negotiations with the warrant holders right now to see what we can do. But, I think we have done a lot of work in the last few months. We're putting some language out there that might help us out going forward.

Do you think, we can get this resolved by year-end?

I don't want to look into the crystal ball. Clearly, we are actively and negotiating that's all I can say at this point. Like I said there is another parties on the other end.

Thanks again and congratulations once more.

Okay. Thank you, Russell.

Thank you. (Operator Instructions) Look there are no further questions at this time. I would like to turn the floor back to the management for any further or closing comments.

Thank you, Kevin. And thank you all for participating today. We look forward to seeing you at upcoming conferences and to keeping you up to-date on our progress.

Thank you. That does conclude today's teleconference. You may disconnect your lines at this time and have a wonderful day. We thank you for your participation today.
